Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
The litho print titled ""I never before met with natives of any place so much astonished as these people were upon entering a ship"" captures a remarkable moment in history. The image depicts the astonishment and amazement of indigenous islanders encountering a ship for the first time during Captain James Cook's voyages in the 18th century. As we gaze at this scene, we witness the profound surprise etched on their faces, reflecting their encounter with an entirely foreign object. The deck is bustling with British sailors, while Cook himself stands tall as the navigator and explorer leading this historic expedition. This artwork serves as a testament to human curiosity and exploration. It reminds us of our innate desire to discover new lands and cultures, but also highlights the impact such encounters had on indigenous communities. The illustration comes from "The Life and Voyages of Captain James Cook" by C G Cash, providing valuable insight into one of history's greatest explorers. Through this litho print, artist Paul Hardy masterfully captures not only the visual details but also conveys emotions felt by both sides - astonishment mingled with trepidation. It invites us to ponder how such encounters shaped our understanding of different cultures and paved the way for future exploration. With its rich historical context and evocative imagery, this artwork offers viewers a glimpse into an era when ships like these sparked wonderment among those who encountered them for the very first time.
